Problem
Independent music artists often struggle to secure funding for marketing and promotion, limiting their reach and potential for success. Traditional funding models may require artists to relinquish rights or control over their creative work.

Solution
Corite is a fan-funding platform that enables music fans to invest directly in artists' projects, providing a new avenue for funding and engagement. Artists can launch campaigns to raise capital for marketing and promotion, retaining full ownership of their rights and creative control. Fans who back these campaigns receive a share of the streaming revenues generated by the music, aligning their financial interests with the artist's success. The platform also provides artists with distribution to major music platforms and daily data on streaming performance.
